I wonder....showing whether 2 interfaces as "path name" and "id" to users is a
good thing or not. Yes, it's convenient to developpers as me and you, others,
but I don't think it's useful to users, novice people.
I'd like to avoid showing show memcg->id to users as much as possible. I don't
want to say but memcg is enough complicated.
